Thank you for your interest in our dermatology residency program at The University of Maryland School of Medicine, the oldest public medical school in the country!

We are a small, yet strong department, and our residents graduate with excellent preparation for either entering a fellowship or a position in academic or private practice.

Some strengths of our program that I would like to highlight include:

  • A diverse patient population
  • Practice locations within university urban and suburban clinics, as well The Baltimore Veterans Administration Medical Center
  • "Hands-on" surgical and procedural (laser, cosmetic) dermatology from the very start of training
  • Inpatient consultations within a large teaching hospital, The University of Maryland Medical Center
  • Faculty that are supportive of each other and of the residents
  • Outstanding full-time academic pediatric dermatologist
  • Opportunity to interact with community dermatologists and Mohs surgeons who volunteer in our program
  • Collaboration with the University of Maryland Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Cancer Center
  • Yearly presentations at the Maryland Dermatologic Society Fall Clinical Conference
  • Protected didactic time with an organized curriculum
  • Participation in regular grand rounds and journal clubs
  • Attendance of at least one national dermatologic meeting per year

Should you come for an interview at our program, I hope you will see that our department embodies The Core Values of The University of Maryland:

  • Accountability – we are committed to being responsible and transparent
  • Civility - our interactions should be professional, ethical, respectful, and courteous
  • Collaboration - we promote teamwork that fosters insightful and excellent solutions and advancement
  • Diversity – we are committed to a culture that is enriched by diversity and inclusion, in the broadest sense, in its thoughts, actions, and leadership
  • Excellence - we are guided by a constant pursuit of excellence
  • Knowledge - our industry is to create, disseminate, and apply knowledge
  • Leadership - we continuously strive to be a leader and to develop leaders

Welcome to all who visit!
